I was expecting same, but found one with significant markdown on the east coast this morning. Now I have 2 R's reserved lol. BTW, if you're willing to drive a little bit ... you can get one in the next 2 weeks instead of April. I recommend going onto cars.com and doing a little bit of cross-shopping

Get invoice price if you company is a preferred vendor

My company is a preferred vendor. I asked the sales guy to look it up and when he found it he wrote it up for invoice. -- loaded 4 door $35,417. I wasn't the first on the dealer list so I have to wait for the next batch to make it to the dealer towards the end of Feb.

I'm hoping the dealer I ordered from honors the same deal. Has your dealer confirmed that price?

Yes, they have to honor it. The only wiggle room they have is that it's up to them wether they want to sell you a car from their stock or from their order bank. Or, if VWoA is restricting it on specific models which at this time they're not.

You also have to work with a dealer participating in the program. Not all VW dealers participate.

The dealer told me they will honor it but I will remain nervous about it until the deal is executed.

I'm pleased that VWoA hasn't excluded the Golf R from the program....yet
